Oh, the humanatee.

As reported by the Arizona Daily Star , our beloved Arizona legislature has been at it again. This time, amongst the myriad bills they worked to push through prior to busting out of session like crazed wildebeests, was one establishing Arizona's State Gun.

Ayup. Arizona's state gun. We are just PURE CLASS down here, y'all.

Affected southern accents aside, this is ridiculousness in its purest form. Arizona has no need for a state gun, much in the same way Maine has no need for a state dessert. At least that one kills you slowly.

This is pretty much a big "fuck you" to everyone in the state who is alarmed by increasing gun privileges and gun violence in our own communities. Brewer may have (shock and awe!) blocked the law allowing people to carry guns in public rights of way on university campuses, but the legislature just needs to get that last dig in. "And just in case you forgot, we still love guns! Guns guns guns everywhere! Guns... the solution!"

Because we know how much our friends love 2nd amendment remedies.

By the way, they also opened the session with a tribute to the Tucson shooting victims.

Oh, the humanatee...
